Answer:
17
Step-by-step explanation:
The points at the ends of the interval are ...
(0, f(0)) = (0, 0)
(7, f(7)) = (7, 119)
The average rate of change is given by the slope formula:
m = (y2 -y1)/(x2 -x1)
m = (119 -0)/(7 -0) = 119/7 = 17
Working for a car company, you have been assigned to find the average miles per gallon (mpg) for acertain model of car. you take a random sample of 15 cars of the assigned model. based on previous evidence and a qq plot, you have reason to believe that the gas mileage is normally distributed. you find that the sample average miles per gallon is around 26.7 with a standard deviation of 6.2 mpg.
a. Construct and interpret a 95% condence interval for the mean mpg, , for the certain model of car.
b. What would happen to the interval if you increased the condence level from 95% to 99%? Explain
c. The lead engineer is not happy with the interval you contructed and would like to keep the width of the whole interval to be less than 4 mpg wide. How many cars would you have to sample to create the interval the engineer is requesting?
Answer:
a) The 95% confidence interval for the mean mpg, for the certain model of car is (23.3, 30.1). This means that we are 95% sure that the true mean mpg of the model of the car is between 23.3 mpg and 30.1 mpg.
b) Increasing the confidence level, the value of T would increase, thus increasing the margin of error and making the interval wider.
c) 37 cars would have to be sampled.
Step-by-step explanation:
Question a:
We have the sample standard deviation, and thus, the t-distribution is used to solve this question.
The first step to solve this problem is finding how many degrees of freedom, we have. This is the sample size subtracted by 1. So
df = 15 - 1 = 14
95% confidence interval
Now, we have to find a value of T, which is found looking at the t table, with 14 degrees of freedom(y-axis) and a confidence level of [tex]1 - \frac{1 - 0.95}{2} = 0.975[/tex]. So we have T = 2.1448
The margin of error is:
[tex]M = T\frac{s}{\sqrt{n}} = 2.1448\frac{6.2}{\sqrt{15}} = 3.4[/tex]
In which s is the standard deviation of the sample and n is the size of the sample.
The lower end of the interval is the sample mean subtracted by M. So it is 26.7 - 3.4 = 23.3 mpg.
The upper end of the interval is the sample mean added to M. So it is 26.7 + 3.4 = 30.1 mpg.
The 95% confidence interval for the mean mpg, for the certain model of car is (23.3, 30.1). This means that we are 95% sure that the true mean mpg of the model of the car is between 23.3 mpg and 30.1 mpg.
b. What would happen to the interval if you increased the confidence level from 95% to 99%? Explain
Increasing the confidence level, the value of T would increase, thus increasing the margin of error and making the interval wider.
c. The lead engineer is not happy with the interval you constructed and would like to keep the width of the whole interval to be less than 4 mpg wide. How many cars would you have to sample to create the interval the engineer is requesting?
Width is twice the margin of error, so a margin of error of 2 would be need. To solve this, we have to consider the population standard deviation as [tex]\sigma = 6.2[/tex], and then use the z-distribution.
We have that to find our [tex]\alpha[/tex] level, that is the subtraction of 1 by the confidence interval divided by 2. So:
[tex]\alpha = \frac{1 - 0.95}{2} = 0.025[/tex]
Now, we have to find z in the Z-table as such z has a p-value of [tex]1 - \alpha[/tex].
That is z with a pvalue of [tex]1 - 0.025 = 0.975[/tex], so Z = 1.96.
Now, find the margin of error M as such
[tex]M = z\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}[/tex]
In which [tex]\sigma[/tex] is the standard deviation of the population and n is the size of the sample.
How many cars would you have to sample to create the interval the engineer is requesting?
This is n for which M = 2. So
[tex]M = z\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}[/tex]
[tex]2 = 1.96\frac{6.2}{\sqrt{n}}[/tex]
[tex]2\sqrt{n} = 1.96*6.2[/tex]
[tex]\sqrt{n} = \frac{1.96*6.2}{2}[/tex]
[tex](\sqrt{n})^2 = (\frac{1.96*6.2}{2})^2[/tex]
[tex]n = 36.9[/tex]
Rounding up:
37 cars would have to be sampled.
What is the area of a trapezoid.. base 14in and 7in height is 5in?
if the formula is [tex]\frac{(B+b)}{2} .h[/tex] we just need to plug in the values
21/2 = 10.5 x 5 = 52.5
hope it helps :)
Answer:
A = 52.5 in^2
Step-by-step explanation:
The area of a trapezoid is
A = 1/2 (b1+b2)h
where b1 and b2 are the bases and h is the height
A = 1/2 ( 14+7)*5
A = 105/2
A = 52.5 in^2
Each Friday, the sixth grade students in Mr. Shin's physical education class spend the first five minutes doing crunches. Instead of keeping track of the weekly total number of crunches, Mr. Shin keeps track of how they do compared to the week before, and then records the result as a positive or negative number. Record the number for each of the following:
Ben did 10 more crunches this week than last week. What number would Mr. Shin record?
Gail did 8 less crunches this week than last week. What number would Mr. Shin record?
Nathaniel did the same number of crunches this week as last week. What number would Mr. Shin record?
awnser asap
Answer:
Mr. Shim would record the number +10 or 10 for Ben because of the word "more".
For Gail, Mr. Shin would record the number -8 because of the word, "less''.
Since Nathaniel did not improve or decrease the number of crunches, Mr. Shin would record the number 0.

Which of the following is an advantage of using systematic random sampling?
Systematic random sampling reduces sampling variability.
Systematic random sampling does not require a finite population size.
Systematic random sampling could inadvertently miss patterns in the population.
Systematic random sampling uses clusters, which are close in proximity, making data collection easier.
This is a question that asks about the advantages of a systematic random sampling. Thus, we first take a look at the types of sampling, and then we see the advantage of systematic random sampling.
Samples may be classified as:
Convenient: Sample drawn from a conveniently available pool.
Random: Basically, put all the options into a hat and drawn some of them.
Systematic: Every kth element is taken. For example, you want to survey something on the street, you interview every 5th person, for example.
Cluster: Divides population into groups, called clusters, and each element in the cluster is surveyed.
Stratified: Also divides the population into groups. However, then only some elements of the group are surveyed.
Systematic:
One of the bigger advantages is that the systematic sampling eliminate clusters, which means that the last option is wrong.
Inadvertently missing patterns is a problem in systematic sampling, and not an advantage, thus the third option is also wrong.
It also does not reduce sampling variability, thus the first option is wrong.
From this, it can be concluded that the correct option is:
Systematic random sampling does not require a finite population size.

A particle is moving with the given data. Find the position of the particle.
a(t) = [tex]t^{2}[/tex] − 4t + 5, s(0) = 0, s(1) = 20
How do I find s(t)=?
Recall that
[tex]\dfrac{dv(t)}{dt} = a(t) \Rightarrow dv(t) = a(t)dt[/tex]
Integrating this expression, we get
[tex]\displaystyle v(t) = \int a(t)dt = \int(t^2 - 4t + 5)dt[/tex]
[tex]\:\:\:\:\:\:\:= \frac{1}{3}t^3 - 2t^2 + 5t + C_1[/tex]
Also, recall that
[tex]\dfrac{ds(t)}{dt} = v(t)[/tex] or
[tex]\displaystyle s(t) = \int v(t)dt = \int (\frac{1}{3}t^3 - 2t^2 + 5t + C_1)dt[/tex]
[tex]\:\:\:\:\:\:\:= \frac{1}{12}t^4 - \frac{2}{3}t^3 + \frac{5}{2}t^2 + C_1t + C_2[/tex]
Next step is to find [tex]C_1\:\text{and}\:C_2[/tex]. We know that at t = 0, s = 0, which gives us [tex]C_2 = 0[/tex]. At t = 1, s = 20, which gives us
[tex]s(1) = \frac{1}{12}(1)^4 - \frac{2}{3}(1)^3 + \frac{5}{2}(1)^2 + C_1(1)[/tex]
[tex]= \frac{1}{12} - \frac{2}{3} + \frac{5}{2} + C_1 = \frac{23}{12} + C_1 = 20[/tex]
or
[tex]C_1 = \dfrac{217}{12}[/tex]
Therefore, s(t) can be written as
[tex]s(t) = \frac{1}{12}t^4 - \frac{2}{3}t^3 + \frac{5}{2}t^2 + \frac{217}{12}t[/tex]

The distribution of widgets from a production line is known to be approximately normal with mean 2.7 inches and standard deviation 0.25 inches. About 95% of the distribution lies between what two values?
A. 2.45 inches and 3.2 inches
B. 2.45 inches and 2.95 inches
C. 2.2 inches and 3.2 inches
D. 1.95 inches and 3.45 inches
Option D is correct. 95% of the distribution lies between 1.9975inches and 3.4025inches.
To get the required range of values, we will have to first get the z-score for the two-tailed probability at a 95% confidence interval. According to the normal table, the required range is between -2.81 and 2.81
The formula for calculating the z-score is expressed as;
[tex]z=\frac{x-\overline x}{s}[/tex] where:
[tex]\overline x[/tex] is the mean
s is the standard deviation
z is the z-scores
Given the following
[tex]\overline x[/tex]=2.7 in
s = 0.25
if z = -2.81
[tex]-2.81=\frac{x-2.7}{0.25}\\x-2.7=-2.81*0.25\\x-2.7=-0.7025\\x=-0.7025+2.7\\x=1.9975[/tex]
Similarly:
[tex]2.81=\frac{x_2-2.7}{0.25}\\x_2-2.7=2.81*0.25\\x_2-2.7=0.7025\\x_2=0.7025+2.7\\x_2=3.4025[/tex]
Hence the 95% of the distribution lies between 1.9975inches and 3.4025inches.

Which of the following is NOT a requirement for testing a claim about two population standard deviations or variances? A. The populations are independent. B. One of the populations is normally distributed. C. The two samples are simple random samples. D. This test requires that both populations have normal distributions.
Answer:
B. One of the populations is normally distributed.
Step-by-step explanation:
To test a claim about two population standard deviation or variance, it is imperative that the data meets certain requirements which include :
Randomness : Data must not be biased as such it must be drawn as a random sample from a larger group.
The data must be independent. That is not related to one another, the outcome of one should not rely on the outcome or value of another.
Both groups must be drawn From a population which is normally distributed.
One group being normally distributed by stribuyed while the other isn't a requirement for hypothesis testing in this scenario.

Please help me determine the general equation for the graph above as well as solve for a. Thank you.
Observe that the x coords of the roots of a polynomial are,
[tex]x_{1,2,3,4}=\{-3,0,1,4\}[/tex]
Which can be put into form,
[tex]y=a(x-x_1)(x-x_2)(x-x_3)(x-x_4)[/tex]
with data
[tex]y=a(x-(-3))(x-0)(x-1)(x-4)=ax(x+3)(x-1)(x-4)[/tex]
Now if I take any root point and insert it into the equation I won't be able to solve for y because they will always multiply to zero (ie. when I pick [tex]x=-3[/tex] the right hand side will multiply to zero,
[tex]y=-3a(-3+3)(-3-1)(-3-4)=0[/tex]
and a will be "lost" in the process.
If we observed a non-root point that we could substitute with x and y and result in a non-loss process then you could find a. But since there is no such point (I don't think you can read it of the graph) there is no other viable way to find a.
Hope this helps :)

What is the sum of the geometric sequence 1, 3, 9, ... if there are 10 terms? (5 points)
Answer:
[tex]S_n = \frac{1 (1 - 3^{10})}{1 - 3} = 29524[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
There's a handy formula we can use to find the sum of a geometric sequence, and here it is
[tex]S_n = \frac{a_1 (1 - r^n)}{1 - r}[/tex]
The value n represents the amount of terms you want to sum in the sequence. The variable r is known as the common ratio, and a is just some constant. Let's find those values.
First lets visualize this sequence
[tex]n_1 = 1\\n_2 = 1 + 3\\n_3 = 1 + 3 + 3^2\\n_4=1+3+3^2+3^3\\...[/tex]
Okay so there's clearly a pattern here, let's write it a bit more concisely. For each n, starting at 1, we raise 3 to the (n-1) power, add it to what we had for the previous term.
[tex]S_n = \sum{3^{n-1}} = 3^{1 - 1} + 3^{2 - 1} + 3^{3-1} ...[/tex]
Our coefficients of r, and a, are already here! As you can see below, r is just 3, and a is just 1.
[tex]S_n = \sum{a*r^{n-1}}[/tex]
To finish up lets plug these coefficients in and get our sum after 10 terms.
[tex]S_n = \frac{1 (1 - 3^{10})}{1 - 3} = 29524[/tex]
